Noni Madueke is a step closer to leaving Chelsea, with the 22-year-old attacking prospect reportedly agreeing on personal terms with Newcastle United.
According to a report by Football Insider, Noni Madueke is the subject of interest from Newcastle United. The Magpies are keen on signing a wide attacker in the summer transfer window. And they are a step closer to landing the 22-year-old Chelsea attacker, who has agreed on personal terms with the Tyneside outfit.
Noni Madueke and his Chelsea woes
Noni Madueke has struggled to stamp his authority since joining Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven in a deal worth £29 million in January 2023. The Englishman has been one of several victims of the West London club’s ridiculous hoarding policy, which has scuppered the progress of many players in the last 24 months.
The 22-year-old has not even managed 2,500 minutes of game time across 46 appearances thus far for Chelsea in the last 18 months while chipping in with nine goals and three assists. However, Madueke’s stock in the market remains high, with several well-known clubs, particularly from the Premier League, interested in signing him in the summer transfer window.
Recent reports have linked the English attacker with Crystal Palace and Newcastle United. The Magpies, in particular, are pushing hard to secure Noni Madueke’s services in the summer transfer window, with the latest report revealing an agreement on personal terms between the two parties.
Move across the Premier League on the cards?
Newcastle United’s interest in Noni Madueke is understandable. The Magpies have been scouring the market for a wide attacker heading into the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the long-term future of Miguel Almiron. With the Paraguayan international likely to move to Saudi Arabia, Newcastle United need a replacement.
So, several candidates have emerged on Newcastle United’s radar, with Madueke a viable target. The latest update has revealed the agreement on personal terms between the 2023 Chelsea signing and the Tyneside outfit. So, they are closing in on securing the Englishman’s services in the summer transfer window.
Chelsea and Newcastle United still need to secure an agreement on transfer fee before a move for the 22-year-old English attacker sees the light of day. However, with personal terms not an issue, we might see Madueke moving to St. James’ Park in the coming weeks.
